Agora Partnerships is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing talented entrepreneurs in emerging markets with the tools, networks, and financing necessary to launch successful, socially responsible SME businesses. These businesses are the engine of growing economies, and have the potential to create long term economic growth and broad based social change. By creating jobs and operating in the formal economy, these developing world entrepreneurs reduce poverty and sustain a growing middle class, but they need support to succeed.
Agora Partnerships gives them that support. By matching entrepreneurs with consultants and providing business development resources, Agora helps the entrepreneurs turn their vision into success. Each of the entrepreneurs we help is like a razoo, one of many small agents of change that when added up can transform entire economies.
But every big change starts with a little one. This is how Santos and Jacqueline Reyes were able to make their change.
